Chapter 44 I Will Set Up A Studio

Christina couldn’t be bothered to explain herself as she was not obligated to tell anyone about their relationship.

“Yes, that’s right. We’re not a real married couple, so you should stop expecting me to be the bridge between you guys,” she said and hung up the phone immediately after.

Seeing the word “Dad” on her phone screen put a wry smile on her face.

I treated him like my father, but he has never treated me like his daughter… He never calls unless he needs me to pull some strings or do him some favors. He doesn’t even ask me how I’ve been. What a joke… Oh, well… He’ll probably stop bothering me in the future, so that’s not so bad.

Although Nathaniel had gotten a lot busier lately, he would still call her and text her on a daily basis.

Christina’s daily life revolved around her office, the cafeteria, and her house.

When it was time for lunch, her colleagues suggested that they go to a nearby barbecue restaurant.

Probably because of her relationship with Nathaniel, her colleagues had gotten a lot chattier and friendlier with her all of a sudden.

Some of them would even ask her about her relationship with Nathaniel, but she would always brush their questions off with vague answers,

“Let’s go, Christina! We’ve already made reservations!” said a female colleague as they dragged her out

of the office.

It wasn’t until they arrived at the restaurant that they realized Yosef was there as well.

As they were seated directly across from him, the female colleagues were all fangirling over his elegant yet melancholic aura.

Christina was starting to wonder if they actually came here for him and not to have lunch.

She went to use the restroom before they paid the bill, and Yosef was the only one left by the time she

came out.

The waiter served them two glasses of juice after putting away the plates and utensils.

“Let’s finish this before we go.” Yosef said while handing her one of the glasses.

Christina couldn’t bring herself to decline his offer, so she sat down and took a sip of the juice. “Let’s split the bill. I’ll transfer the money over to you.”

“Sure thing. Here’s my QR code,” Yosef replied while holding his phone out.

Christina pulled out her phone and was about to scan his QR code when someone snatched her phone out of her hand.

“What do you two think you’re doing?” Nathaniel shouted angrily as he stood there, dressed in a suit

The look in his eyes grew cold when his gaze fell upon Yosef.

The aura he exuded was so frigid that nobody dared look directly at him.

Oh, no… What is Nathaniel doing here? He looks really angry. I bet he must have gotten the wrong idea. With that in mind. Christina said. “Please don’t misunderstand. I’m just paying him money for lunch.”

Nathaniel got incredibly jealous when he glanced at the table and saw that there were only two sets of plates and utensils.

“Were you two the only ones having lunch here?” he asked while trying his best to keep his anger suppressed.
